[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 751124, member: 16024"] Giving your daughter more responsibility/privileges is the same as giving your daughter more control over your lives (you, husband, baby). Every aspect of your lives. Giving her more control sounds like signing up for more of what you are already getting with regards to her—chaos, irresponsibility, drama, fighting, etc. except with her in the driver’s seat. If the goal is really just so that you can enjoy your impending retirement, it seems a better idea would be to have more babysitters or relatives so that you can do these things. I agree with Copa, except I believe the Harm Reduction Model presupposes that the addict uses substances occasionally and in a responsible way before they are supported, not that they continue their destructive ways. I don’t think she is there, yet. Apple [/QUOTE]
